Let c and n represent the numbers of pencil and pen boxes, respectively
.. 3c +2n = 6.00
.. 2c +4n = 8.00
You can halve the second equation and subtract it from the first to get
.. (3c +2n) -(c +2n) = 6.00 -4.00
.. 2c = 2.00
.. c = 1.00
Then
.. 1.00 +2n = 4.00 . . . . . half the original second equation with c filled n
.. 2n = 3.00
.. n = 1.50
A box of pencils costs $1.00; a box of pens costs $1.50.
Since both are equivalent to y, the equations must be equivalent.
x^2-x-3= -3x+5
x^2+2x-8=0
(x+4)(x-2)=0
x=-4, x=2
Plug the values of x in to either equation
y=-3(-4)+5
y= 12+5
y=17
y= -3(2)+5
y=-6+5
y=-1
Final answer: (-4,17) and (2,-1)
